CBU Launches Virtual Campus Tour

While we often think of virtual or augmented reality as something far off and beyond our reach, it’s actually happening right now at our fingertips. As the world we live in becomes more digital, so does Cape Breton University. CBU is excited to announce the launch of a new virtual reality campus tour!

Whether you’re a prospective student looking to find your new home away from home, a current student wondering what campus offers outside of your classroom, or a curious community member who hasn’t been to campus in a while, you can now experience CBU’s campus no matter where in the world you happen to be.

The tour encompasses 18 prominent stops around campus and the surrounding areas. There are also 30 360͒ options, which allow viewers to immerse themselves in the CBU experience and imagine what it feels like to walk the halls of campus.

The virtual reality tour can be viewed using the “Cape Breton University” app and virtual reality headsets, while the 360͒ tour can be viewed from your mobile phone or desktop computer.
